Books about mental problems, cutting, eating disorders, etc.?


I love reading about teen problems like cutting, suicide, eating disroders, and most importantly people with mental problems. I suffer from depression and SEVERE anxiety myself, so i want to read a book similar to my life, especially one that has anxiety in it. Any suggestions?

ok these are the ones i can think of that i've read:

Girl, Interrupted by Susanna Kayson (about just general psychiatric problems, depression and anxiety)
Skin Game by Caroline Kettlewell (about self-injury, depression, anxiety, and a little bit of ED)
The Luckiest Little Girl In The World by Steven Levenkron (about self-injury)
The Best Little Girl In The World by Steven Levenkron (about anorexia)
Prozac Nation by Elizabeth Wurtzel (about depression & anxiety and a little bit of self-injury)
Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson (about anorexia and has some self-injury)
Wonder When You'll Miss Me by Amanda Davis (really good book about a girl with bad body image who tries to commit suicide and runs away from home)

hmm that's all I can think of for now, I hope it's enough for ya! :)

The Red Report:Self Harm Cure by Collin Camino http://www.prlog.org/10213099-filmmaker-...

You can read it online..it is a big hit with teens and adult cutters because it teaches you how to stop cutting without a doctor or medications

Depression you can read " Why you don't want to live" also online to read http://suiciderateup.wordpress.con/about...

Cut by Patricia McCormick. There's an entire series of books you'd like. They're called True Colors. They have books about drugs, mental troubles, cutting, alcoholism, eating disorders, and bad families. Blade Silver: Color Me Scarred is my favorite. The series is by Melody Carlson.
They're all great
